551st Recruitment
This is to rely on Xie Feibao's ability to completely exterminate the mountain bandits that have been plaguing the entire Lizhou Road for him.
You must know that Lizhou Road is the traffic artery leading to Guanzhong on the entire Yizhou Fourth Road, and the Sanmenxia River is turbulent, which is not suitable for transportation at all.
Cai Xuan didn't really want to agree to the other party's request.
However, Shi Ernai, who had already returned, explained: "Ming Mansion, in fact, General Xie is not unable to stay on Lizhou Road. He can train on the spot, and just take this opportunity to test the results of the training with those bandits on Lizhou Road. Not only Lizhou Road, but also Chengdu Fu Road and Zizhou Road, the bandits in these two roads are the best training tools. Moreover, training troops in other places can also save money and food for the Ming Mansion, isn't it? ”
"You're right. In fact, General Shi didn't need to shy away from it, even under the rule of his own official, he didn't dare to say that there were no bandits at all, so he just took this opportunity to wipe out the bandits in Kuizhou Road and the barbarians who refused to submit to Wanghua in one fell swoop. Cai Xuan himself did not shy away from it, and bluntly said his plans.
"Thank you Ming Mansion for your appreciation and trust, but you should also choose some more famous local generals to assist Xie Feibao and Zaixia, after all, ......" Speaking of this, Shi Ernai did not finish everything he had to say.
Cai Xuan understood what Shi Ernai meant, what he was going to say next was actually to show his attitude, after all, the five generals were not generals of the imperial court, but Cai Dao supported him.
Once the war is over, no matter how much Cai Xuan trusts him, he will still leave immediately.
If, after this battle, Cai Xuan is no longer an official, there is nothing, but if he wants to continue to be an official, there must be someone in the entrainment. You can't always accept Cai Dao's support.
It doesn't hurt for Cai Dao to come up with ideas, but he always sends his people over, which will inevitably make the official family and other officials criticize.
So, Cai Xuan wrote to the transfer envoys of Zizhou Road and Chengdu Fu Road, asking if these two needed to send people to assist in the suppression of bandits.
The transfer envoy of Zizhou Road was naturally very happy, but after receiving Cai Xuan's letter, the transfer envoy of Chengdu Fu Road never heard back, and even the recruitment of the three young generals suddenly became difficult.
After learning of this situation, Cai Xuan immediately issued an order and recruited the three young generals back. He understands the psychology of the transfer envoy, Chengdu Fu Road has always been the center of the entire Yizhou Fourth Road, although the two have the same official position, but the other party still has a sense of superiority in his heart after all, so he naturally does not allow himself to meddle in anything in Chengdu Fu Road.
Wang Sunsin was sent to assist Xie Feibao, while the Liu brothers assisted Shi Ernai in dealing with the bandits on Lizhou Road.
As a result, after getting the news, the bandits of the entire Yizhou Fourth Road immediately slipped away and moved to Chengdu Fu Road, and those who thought they could block the official army were ready to unite and help each other.
But they're bandits! If you really have to leave your cottage and gather together, it will save Xie Feibao and Shi Ernai's strength.
However, on Kuizhou Road, all the bandits led by the Han people have fled, and the rest are all barbarian tribes that have always refused to fully belong to the Han people. Just like Meishanman on Jinghu South Road, he has always been in a state of semi-independence.
Therefore, this time, Cai Xuan offered a heavy reward to recruit warriors who dared to fight. Of course, he would not be stupid enough to fire a map cannon and attack all the mountain barbarians who did not surrender, but only preached to the outside world that this attack was only aimed at those mountain barbarians who had been harming Kuizhou.
There will be brave men under the great reward.
There are many people in the local area who have been bullied by the mountain barbarians, or whose family members have been killed by the mountain barbarians, have applied for recruitment. There are even many people who were taken back to the village by those mountain barbarians and desperately escaped.
No matter how dangerous your barbarian village is, as long as the leading party is there, you can't escape the fate of being broken after all.
Although Cai Dao did not introduce high-powered firearms into the ordnance superintendent, he optimized the production of other more advanced weapons in the Great Song Dynasty, which greatly shortened the production cycle. For example, the Divine Arm Bow and the Eight Bull Crossbow.
No, it was the latest model of the Eight Bull Crossbow that broke through these cottages.
Although these young generals are not as good as Shi Ernai and Xie Feibao, they occupy the right time and place, and the work of suppressing bandits on Kuizhou Road is progressing faster than the other two roads.
After exterminating the three large cottages, most of the remaining mountain barbarian tribes on Kuizhou Road sent envoys to surrender to Cai Xuan.
Only a handful of mountain barbarian tribes fled into Chengdu Fulu with those Han Chinese. As a result, this prosperous place became a place of thieves. Only then did these people realize that they were really stupid before. guarded such a big fat sheep, but never found out, and lived a poor life in the other three ways.
Unexpectedly, the transfer envoy of Chengdu Fulu not only did not think about his own fault, but the wicked person sued first and accused Zhao Xu of Cai Xuan that he was beggar-thy-neighbor and drove the bandits and bandits to his rule.
Zeng Zhao, who was familiar with the situation, explained to the official family: "Your Majesty, there is a matter of bandits in the territory of Kuizhou Road running to Chengdu Fu Road, but there are more in Lizhou Road and Zizhou Road, I don't know why this transfer envoy didn't say it." The matter of suppressing bandits is within the scope of Cai Xuan's transfer envoy, and no one else has the right to put their beaks in their mouths. Besides, Your Majesty, why didn't this envoy reflect on himself, why did all those bandits and bandits run to his rule? ”
As a result, the transfer envoy had no choice but to step down. Zhao Xu sent a veteran to sit on Chengdu Mansion Road, which can be regarded as containing the situation in Chengdu Mansion.
Bianliang City, since the southern conquest of Dali has been delayed, and there is no need for the imperial court to spend grain and grass and send forbidden troops. Then the Lanzhou City strategy was once again put on the agenda.
Zhang Qi and Cai Bian's recitals had already been handed to Zhao Xu's table, and both of them also appreciated Chong Jianzhong very much, and they appreciated this civil official from Jiangmen very much.
Therefore, the commander who captured Lanzhou City was set as a kind of Jianzhong, and his younger brother was unexpectedly reused, and he became the new owner of Jinmingzhai, as for Pan Xiong, he had already gone to Wudang Mountain. Because he took office as the owner of Jinming Village this time, it was not only Cai Dao's recommendation, but he also wanted to repay the favor of the Pan family.
After all, Pan Xiong was able to have today's achievements, firstly, because he worked hard, secondly, Cai Dao gave him the opportunity, and thirdly, it was also an improper fact that the Pan family gave him the opportunity to go south.
Therefore, after the Battle of Yan'an, Pan Xiong immediately left Yanyan Road, and his credit has now been attributed to another son of the Pan family. Cai Bian is indeed much smoother and smoother than Zhang Qi when he does this kind of thing.
However, after that Pan Gongzi won the meritorious service, Cai Bian also drove him back to Bianliang City, and stayed here, not only did both parties feel uncomfortable. He also didn't worry about this sister-in-law of the Pan family, he didn't have any ability at all, and he could defend any border village.
I heard that this kind of construction is the third generation of the family nephew, and it was recommended by Zeng Zhao, when did the Ministry of Officials Shangshu manage the affairs of the military department.
Cai Bian naturally knew that Zeng Zhao was not an eventful person, and since this person could enter his sight, then this person must have been mentioned to Zeng Zhao by his Luo Guo son.
After inquiring about it, when Cai Bian heard that there was a younger brother in this seed building who was also a good seed teacher, he moved his mind and recruited him into his subordinates.
Cai Bian's sudden idea made Zhang Qi and Zeng Zhao annoyed in the second battle of Pingxia City later.
In the second year, in order to prevent the newly built city of Pingxia City from being too isolated, and also to seize Lanzhou City.
Along the Xixia Fourth Road, it was a joint operation, and the first to be dispatched was the Yanyan Road.
Cai Bian, the envoy of the strategy, ordered eighty percent of the soldiers and horses in the Yanyan Road, with 5,000 as a team, and the leaders were all generals, and divided the troops to attack the border between this road and the Western Xia Kingdom, threatening the farming of the Western Xia Kingdom.
In order to make the four-way military operation smooth this time, after getting Zhao Xu's permission, the three-way envoys were also released, and all the soldiers were assembled, and the previous Tuntian was also shelved this year. And the people of the four roads were also recruited, ready to go to the key places on the front line at any time to build new walls and cities. After more than two years, the implementation of the new law in the Gyeonggi region is very encouraging.
Although it is inevitable that various localities will encounter natural disasters of varying degrees, all areas where officials who have changed the law are in charge of government affairs have handled them very effectively. Rather than blocking the way for people fleeing to Gyeonggi, officials set up porridge shacks and relief bureaus along the way so that the victims could maintain their strength and health on the road.
Due to the advanced planting technology and a large number of cattle, and the fact that the land cultivated by the people in the Gyeonggi area was their own, and those forbidden troops who participated in the tuntian, even if they had to pay fifty percent of the grain to the government like Cao Cao did in the tuntian, it was much better than doing white work for those civil and military officials and being exploited by the chief officials.
Of course, the new Tuntian Law is still slightly different from the Tuntian Law implemented by Cao Cao back then.
First, because the ploughing cattle were sufficient, although the ploughing cattle given by the government were not owned by the Tuntian soldiers, they would not need to hand over sixty percent of the grain like the Tuntian of Wei.
Second, if the ploughing ox gives birth to calves, it is the private property of the tuntian soldiers.
Third, taxation is no longer a two-tax law, but a return to the tax system of the Cao Wei period.
The tax per mu was three liters, and the poll tax was changed from monetary to in-kind. The advantage of this is not only to avoid being exploited by government officials and servants, but also to save the peasants who live on the land from the price reduction of merchants.
In addition, the Gyeonggi region has also strengthened the role of standing positions and further strengthened the supervision of standing positions and other national treasury. The Imperial City Division accepts anonymous and real-name reports from any ordinary people about embezzlement or reselling government grain without permission.
And Chong Jianzhong led a group of more than 10,000 soldiers, hidden behind the army, and sent troops to plunder Hongzhou on the Hengshan Mountain.
